Description from the seller

Fossil coral is the organic remains of creatures known to have lived in a saline environment in primordial times. These fossil corals harden due to the silica-rich deposits in the water. This creation process takes approximately twenty million years, supported by unique geological variations. Corals are nothing more than the skeletons of dead marine animals, which are then preserved, leaving their floral patterns in the rock.
This lot offers a beautiful piece... the skilled hands of artisans have created a fossil coral bowl that can be used as a design object, a pocket emptier, or a potpourri. We chose to present it with a hematite necklace measuring approximately 40 cm inside, complete with a burgundy velvet pouch included with the lot.
Happy bidding.
